Enjoy your new watch. Would love to see some sea dwelling in action shots :)
they are around. I tried on one last week at an AD in Houston. It was just sitting in the display case.

I have had a few jewelers say they can get me one. One wanted $14200 the other could do MSRP no sales tax but the warranty card already filled out and not sure if activated. As this has become my grail watch, I want the fun and excitement of buying direct from an AD here in Maryland. So I sit and wait :(

Same deal here, also in Maryland. Any luck with the local AD's? I'm on the waiting list for Annapolis currently. Heard nothing so far...

Great. Now I have competition lol !!! No. The one that could get me one at MSRP was in PA. I didn't quite understand how it can be BNIB with a card stamped, named and dated?. SMH. But one of my stipulations if I don't find one here is no warranty card stamped with a foreign jeweler. I know the store in Annapolis. They have affiliates in VA and all have waiting lists. I am on one here in Baltimore where I bought several Rolexes over the past year so keeping my fingers crossed. I even had one jeweler tell me if I found one he would pay me $500.00 over MSRP( he was the one who found me one for $14200. This has become my grail for some reason. Even over the RGYM I just bought.

Good luck to you.

Good luck to you as well. I'm not 100% I'll buy it, but wanted to get on the list so I could go try it on as soon as possible. But I have the feeling after I do try it on I won't leave the store without it. I'm not fond of paying sales tax however so will most likely skip buying at the Annapolis store unless they are willing to eat the sales tax. I'm on the list in tax-free Delaware also. Neither has said a word yet

Yeah that is strange about the one in PA. Sounds like maybe they were in the process of writing everything up and maybe the guy canceled out at the last second or maybe the CC was declined??? Stupid move either way by the store.

I've heard that place in Baltimore is really nice. Is that Radcliffe? If so I think they are a much bigger operation than the Annapolis store. Maybe better chance of landing one up there. Good luck. Looking forward to your "Incoming" thread - (mine too for that matter)

Actually, my AD is in Belair specifically. I am just use to referring to Baltimore as all inclusive. I have been to Radcliffe in Pikesville. They have a large selection of Rolexes and a huge waiting list also. And there is no way I will get my usual discount on this hot mama if it comes in. I know if I try it on, I will walk out with it. I usually do. Rolexes are my kryptonite.

If looking for one, pm me. I was on my local ADs list. One called me Monday and I bought. Other one just called me a couple hours ago.

I started looking roughly the 6 weeks ago. Talked up 4 shops in Vegas, put on 3 local lists and 2-3 in Vegas. Luck of the draw I guess.
